Love when local businesses support each other! Thank you, Trish at The Painted Wagon in Cleveland, Oklahoma! This is one of my favorite places to shop in Cleveland, y’all! Not only are the clothes adorable but local coffee, soaps, jewelry and more are some of the things in this amazing boutique💕

Fifth Season Farms has fresh cut flowers available today and tomorrow. Easy pay and grab you a bundle.

We are a family flower and pecan farm that started in Weatherford, Texas, and are now growing in a river valley off the Arkansas River in Blackburn, Oklahoma. We love getting to grow where our grandparents started farming over 70 years ago and we are eager to share the wonder and beauty of God's creation with our little piece of the world.

A Long Overdue Farm Update for you:

For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest. A time to kill and a time to heal. A time to tear down and a time to build up. A time to cry and a time to laugh. A time to grieve and a time to dance. A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones. A time to embrace and a time to turn away. A time to search and a time to quit searching. A time to keep and a time to throw away. A time to tear and a time to mend. A time to be quiet and a time to speak. A time to love and a time to hate. A time for war and a time for peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

We have prayed, planned, learned, failed, succeeded, cried, laughed and the harvest was abundant and more than just flowers here at Fifth Season Farm. We have had the privilege to meet, rejoice and grieve with so many; through flowers. Our own relationships were strengthened and roots deepened throughout our growing seasons here at our Weatherford Farm. Our flowers have traveled and blessed many in other states and right here at home and we have been so honored to look upon and be a part of all that the Lord has done.

We were faced with a different challenge as we were literally planting for our 2022 spring harvest, in late summer of 2021. As we were planting, Chelsea had her first seizure-like episode out in the field and it was a scary unknown to say the least. She had another in her home, as she was already in the process of undergoing many tests to find out what was going on. She wasn’t able to drive for many months and consistently driving out to the farm was not feasible. Chelsea has not had more episodes, thank the Lord, and tests came back inconclusive. During that time at home she planted and grew and has blessed others with her flowers. We have seen the Lord’s light in the darkness.

Around the same time, Summer’s dad was officially diagnosed with Alzheimers and by December 2021, he began a rapid decline, making it necessary for Summer to move to the family farm in northeastern Oklahoma to help her mom take care of him. She began seeds, started a big plot with flowers and vegetables and we have tasted and seen the Lord’s goodness in times of trouble.

This has been our season: filled with weeds and challenges, sorrow and gladness. But it turns out the beauty is more pronounced in the thick of things and blessings seem so clear as God’s grace and mercy are ever present and seemingly more obvious in such times as this. We have sought the Lord and found Him in all the things…

So all of that said, Fifth Season Farm has not been able to provide you with flowers this spring and summer and the upcoming seasons are a great unknown to us. What we do know is that God is good. He is our ever present help in times of trouble and His joy is our strength.

Thank you for being a part of our journey. We will keep you posted. If you have any questions in regards to your own growing, we’d love to try and answer them for you.

Happy Growing-

Chelsea and Summer

If you’re down to the wire on a gift for a special person it’s not too late ⏰

We’ve opened up our Spring Bouquet Subscriptions so you can buy them as gifts! Once you order we will email you a beautiful, printable gift card file that you can print and wrap up. When the bouquets become available in the spring (early March we think) we will email you and the recipient to let you know pick up is ready.

We’re also working on additional pickup locations and hours to make it easier on you. On me we have those nailed down we will email all subscribers in case you want to change your pickup location.

Bouquet pickup + scooter gang + ice cream with the neighbors makes a pretty good afternoon.

Green.

We set out to grow thousands of colorful flowers. And we did grow most of the flowers.

We didn’t expect that growing the flowers would come easier than growing the leafy greens that make the flower bouquets feel so lush. We didn’t know yet that the Cresses and Belles of Ireland wouldn’t hold up to our heat. We had good luck for a few weeks with different varieties of basil but much of that has gone to seed and become too spiky. The rest has succumbed to the bugs.

Honestly, we’re doing a lot of foraging for sufficient greens while we study what we need to do differently next year!

So this vase of just foliage looks especially lovely to us. 😍😍 (but if you look too closely you’ll see the holes from bugs so just don’t.)

The mornings have finally been a bit cool(er) and we are so very ready for fall.

It sure brightened our Monday morning to get these pics from the lovely Cindy at !

She used our bright zinnias and cosmos for a very special wedding and we are thrilled to see the results. Gorgeous bride and gorgeous work, right?!

They look like fireworks in the sky 😍

These Jewel of Opar seedlings were all sown the day in that top tray.

A month later they were all the same, small size and we bumped half of them up in to the larger bottom tray.

A couple of weeks and look at the growth on the ones that got bigger pots! We knew it would turn out this way but didn't imagine it would happen so quickly.

Part of the farming fun for us has been all the trialing we get to do, either intentionally or by happy accident.

These Senora Zinnias have a bit of a free-spirited look compared to our usual Giant Benarys!

All the sunflowers are opening!

Two sunflower bunches available for pickup today at the Benbrook Porch. Comment or message to claim them as they’ll be gone too fast to put on up the site.

08/28/2021

The first bunch of fall sunnies going to a friend and long-time customer. Even if “long-time” means since June 😉

We’ve got more of these beauties so message us to grab some as their gone too quickly to put up on the website!

08/27/2021

The first bunch of fall sunnies going to a long-time customer today. We can hardly wait to have more ready!

08/26/2021

Our babies counting peppers 😍

08/25/2021

These Kennikura Cosmos are too fragile in the vase but our favorites in the field. We're saving seeds and will plant them at the front of the farm, up by the road next spring for drive-by enjoyment!

Aren't the seeds fun?!

08/21/2021

We're getting the last few rounds of sunflowers into the ground for fall. Our sunflower success has been spotty this year with one crop of showstoppers and a few crops too short and small. We're taking good notes, testing our variables and waiting to see what we get next!

08/21/2021

Burning holes today for less weeds tomorrow (and ALL the days).

Peaches and cream in this week’s subscription bouquets. 😍

We’re trying to keep the look fresh since in our first year we’ve had great zinnias, zinnias, celosia, zinnias, amaranth, and more zinnias 🤣 we’re hoping for some great sunflowers next week and, you guessed it, more zinnias but they’re coming in fall colors!

Such lovely pollinators out in the field!

We've worked to make the farm attractive to and safe for all the butterflies, bees, ladybugs, dragon flies and other beneficial insects.
